Rafa's playing too safe.
He should continue his third set tactics, but it was probably an all or nothing thing. When he starts a new set and sees a glimmer of hope, he gets back into playing it safe, his natural tendency... might see a barrage of attacks from him soon now he's got nothing to lose again.

Djokovic now going for placement rather than power with his first serve. Good tactic, he wasn't getting any of them in before.

What a shit set by Rafa. Really really poor stuff. Unbelievable effort from Novak.

2011 is Novak's year.

Incredible, should have done it in 3 but massive respect for Nadal who just won't ever quit.

Djokovic is too good at this time, it's a shame he got beat by Federer in the French, it could have been a Grand slam year.
